Astronaut Foods Freeze-Dried Ice Cream Sandwich, NASA Space Dessert, Variety Pack with Vanilla and Neapolitan, 6 Count

These were very fun to try,the texture is a little interesting but it is freeze dried, taste pretty good though. My kids had fun trying them to.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Super fun tasty product was a great hit at a kids’s birthday party and a big hit with the adultsIf you are old and remember this from the old days, it taste exactly the same highly recommend

But, I knew that going on. I bought these to introduce my daughter to them. These freeze dried lies (astronauts never took these with them into space) are not delicious, the texture is off-putting, and they crumble into bits when you try to eat them. That being said, if you've never had this, you should try it. It was invented for astronauts to use, it's interesting, and your tastes are very likely different than mine (although, that doesn't mean you'll like these). Also, brings me back to my childhood and some gift shop from some museum or aeronautics museum, or maybe the Kennedy Space Center, or someplace that sold these in the 80s ... Disney world? Who knows. Ahhhh, the memories.

They arrived broken so they were a little hard to eat. I would recommend purchasing the smaller chunks instead of the long bars. Flavor was good though!

I bought this as a gift for my brother’s birthday and he loved it

I wanted to like this, because I remembered having astronaut ice cream as a kid at a museum once, and it was so good... this one, well, the ice cream itself is fine... or it would have been fine if it didn't have the outer layer of chocolate cookie glued to it. So all you really taste is the chocolate cookie, can hardly taste any of the strawberry or vanilla. They are also pretty small. I would try to find one that doesn't have the outer cookie layer, because that layer is sooooo hard to bite into, it's even harder than a dry cookie really. The hardness of the cookie also makes it incredibly messy, so you have to eat it over the trash can, or put your face into the wrapper so it doesn't spill crumbs everywhere. Again, without the cookie part, it would have been fine because then it would actually just melt in your mouth... but this won't melt since it has the cookie layer and you cannot separate it from the ice cream, it is like fused to it.So, maybe if you really love chocolate flavor, like if you are the type to eat chocolate flavored ice cream sandwiches, maybe you will like this, but the strawberry is my favorite, and I couldn't taste it with all the chocolate overpowering everything.

I bought these for my daughter as part of the Apollo 11 moon landing anniversary. She got a kick out of them. They were a hit!

I had purchased these fun astronaut snacks for my boys years ago at a children’s museum & they enjoyed them so much, they requested more! I couldnt find them again, until this year on amazon! The packaging has changed a bit, but, they are as described and exactly what my sons and I fondly remember! Great for imagining and for a teaching tool about space exploration! So, so pleased
